Gated Recurrent Unit based Autoencoder for Optical Link Fault Diagnosis in Passive Optical Networks

Abstract

We propose a deep learning approach based on an autoencoder for identifying and localizing fiber faults in passive optical networks. The experimental results show that the proposed method detects faults with 97% accuracy, pinpoints them with an RMSE of 0.18 m and outperforms conventional techniques.
